Let's see... what problems were they? Higher premiums? Check. Loss of services and providers dropping out? Check and check. Declining reimbursements? Check. All the stuff we warned of. Now he wants the GOP to fix it for him. |

No, the GOP just have to not stand in the way of the Democrats fixing it. For example, don't filibuster in the Senate, just abstain from voting in the House and let the Democrats own the whole thing. |

Why in the world would the GOP want to stand aside and let the Democrats do anything to save this clusterf*ck that was shoved down the country's throat? See, hardball politics is a two-edged sword. I know a lot of people who are getting hurt by Obamacare. But you know what? Let the Dems have their way and all they will do is make it easier for those who aren't paying anyway, not those that are. |

To me, the October surprise will be the shock people experience when open enrollment opens and people realize just how much their premiums will rise. Just in time for the election. It should be fun to watch.

That's really what Clinton is saying; that commercial, for-profit insurance doesn't work as the primary basis for health coverage. A lot of countries would apparently agree with him. |

And who better to pay than a government with an infinite supply of money? The countries that agree are the ones with the more infinite supply and can afford to eliminate death and disease. |

Part of being great is not driving your population into poverty. Let's hope we can make it great again! |

+1 WTF America? And btw, Copper, ever since a republican completely took gold out of the equation, which would actually work to keep the money supply in check, everyone has had an infinite supply of money. Once we can eliminate all manual, and menial labor, through the use of automation, invent the replicator and transporter, then, and only then, can we have a cashless society, as envisioned in Star Trek. Health care should be universal, and, in my opinion, a right, guaranteed by the constitution. It should be nationalized and paid for by our existing taxes. For how can one have any of the tenets outlined in the Declaration of Independence, without first having health? |

This is it, right here. On the most basic, fundamental level. What should a government provide? What's its role? Conveniently, ours made it explicit:
Yes, there's a cost factor, and that's important. We can't afford to pay for every social program that comes along. But we're not talking about the details of what the government can afford or should provide, we have people in America who want absolutely zero health programs to be provided. It's insane. It's the most basic thing. Liberals should like it because it's government stepping in and making the world the better place or whatever. Conservatives should like it because health programs paid for by income taxes would considerably lessen their financial burden to provide health coverage, and it's the government stepping in and subsidizing their company's human resources. It would keep people healthy, able to work, and off welfare. If it's an important enough program, then it becomes part of the budget and ancillary programs not listed in the Constitution's preamble should go. There is no cost issue when talking about whether or not we should have something at all so what the fuck is the debate even about. |

Guns or Butter. If most of the rest of the Free World would pull its military weight, you might, underline might, be able to afford universal health. |
